So there was a Million MAGA March in DC this weekend and it was YUGE. Predictably Antifa pukes showed up (despite Biden claiming they don’t exist) and started harassing, threatening and assaulting Trump supporters.

(Yes, it’s the Blaze but actual video is included.

So how do you think Trump supporters should respond to things like this?

Honestly, I’m growing more and more frustrated with things like this and nothing being done. I’m starting to think that responding in kind is the only thing they’d understand.
 
I would let the police handle it.... but haven't much confidence that they would in liberal leaning cities like DC which seems in the past to allow antifa to run wild and turn a blind eye. Portland is a good example of that happening.

Trump cultists already murdered people they politically oppose on multiple occasions.

All it led to was fellow cultists getting killed in return.

Over a thousand people are dying every day from a virus the Trump Administration has ignored from day one. But keep going on on about scary Antifa.

'Other' -

Handle it the same as other similar situations:

1] Remove yourself from immediate danger, if possible. Subsequently file & pursue appropriate charges. At the least, make-out a police report to protect yourself & establish the basis for further legal action if desired.

2] If you cannot remove yourself from the immediate threat, carefully defend yourself as appropriate, keeping in mind both the physical & legal hazard you may be incurrng.

That's about it. Nothing complicated at all. Just keep a cool head, and think your actions through.

It’s l interesting you term one “murder” and the other not. I have zero doubt that you’ll always find Trump supporters at fault so, frankly, we shouldn’t give a shit what what you think.

Is there anything Antifa members should do differently?

It’s interesting that you weep and wail about what a victim you think Trump cultists are, especially considering the number of Trump cultists who actively defended the murders committed in Kenosha and elsewhere by Trump supporters.

Yeah yeah, we all know the only opinion Trump cultists care about is that of your Dear Leader.
 
If the cops aren't there, and you are personally in imminent danger, what are you supposed to do? Let those nice counter protesters pound on you? There's your answer.

My first inclination is to let the police handle it...but we've seen the police constantly fail to handle it...in fact, in some cases they appear to be part of the Antifa violence. So, the only recourse is for people to defend themselves as necessary. And that doesn't just go for Trump supporters. Antifa doesn't care who you are...they'll **** you up whether you are a Trump supporter, a Biden supporter or someone who doesn't care about either of them. All victims need to defend themselves...in any way they need to.

I’m just applying the Trump cult’s own standard. It’s not my fault your fellow cultists thinking killing people who politically disagree with you is a-okay.

I think this is fair. But there's a lot of physical & legal liability that can occur when you use physical force upon others, even when you believe you are in the right. I'd avoid physicality, if at all possible.

They should go online and create moronic *gotcha* threads, then spend several hundred posts demanding that everyone who criticizes it condemn random targets, then calling everyone a hypocrite anyway.
